TWTD understands that Town central defender Alex Bruce is set to sign for Leicester City on loan until the end of the season. Bruce has rarely been involved in the first team since picking up an injury in the defeat to Newcastle in late September.

The Irish international signed a new contract in the summer aimed at extending his stay until 2011.

Earlier in the season Bruce was briefly Town captain but lost the armband in his spell out injured.

Steve_ITFC_Sweden added 11:47 - Feb 1 As far as I can see, Bruce has given everything every time he's played for us. Whatever his actual performance on the field (and he often put in good performances), you can't fault a player with that attitude. Thanks, Brucey, and good luck!
